Telezoom

 










Tamron 80-210 F3.8-4 58mm Filter thread Type 103A No.21458934

I bought this from Jessops in October 1996 as I was fed up with a modern telezoom (Centon) as much for the gloomy view at the telephoto end at a maximum aperture of F5.6 as the image quality.
Although it was without a case and obviously used with a few bits of paint missing I was and remain impressed by its' image quality which is very good for a zoom. Its' close focusing is good coming complete with its own dedicated lens hood.
It's just too heavy for me to use hand held.
